After suffering two heart attacks, in 1984 Ronald was seriously injured in a motor accident. His recovery was painful and slow, and he suffered from clinical depression. With Ronald unable to work, the Coopers moved into a mobile home. Finally to ease his depression and boredom he began experimenting with woodworking, drawing on his Christian background for inspiration.

Good condition.
